Renaissance Hotels (renhotels.com), the hotel brand designed to help guests Live Life to Discover, is making discovery easier and more fun with the hotel brand’s first interactive film based gaming experience, Discovery Doors (renhotels.com/discovery). The unique online film experience, created by New York communications agency Anomaly and directed by award winning director Jason Zada, enables users to explore a real life Renaissance hotel online while unlocking unexpected elements of surprise behind every door.
To officially kick-off the online experience, Renaissance Hotels partnered with CeeLo Green, Chief Creative Officer for Primary Wave Music, to surprise an unsuspecting family at the Renaissance New York Hotel 57 with an intimate serenade as they opened their guest room door. The inspiring discovery is one of many surprises players can expect to find when they open one of dozens of doors in the film based digital game. To see exclusive footage of CeeLo Green surprising unsuspecting guests in New York City, visit http://youtu.be/qDXXmw0qr_I.
Players of Discovery Doors are prompted to find “keys” which open doors in the online experience. Behind every door lies a unique discovery – the filming of a silent movie, an 80’s breakdance battle and CeeLo Green himself amongst them - and a chance to win one of over 500 select prizes, including the following:
• The Global Discovery Pass: Winners and their guest will receive a one week long stay in three global destinations (Paris, France; Phuket, Thailand; and Sonoma, California) including airfare, upgraded VIP accommodations at Renaissance Hotels, an array of amenities and a local tour personally curated by the hotel’s Navigator.
